Family gets chance to dance with Grease stars
Tuesday, 18 January 2011
A family from Park North had the opportunity to dance with some of the stars of Grease recently after they won a radio competition.
The Huntleys entered a contest being run by Heart Radio and were astonished to find they had been named the winners, the Swindon Advertiser reports.
As their prize, Vladimira and Colin Huntley, as well as their daughters Kristina, 15, and Karolina, 13, were whisked off to London where they stayed in a top hotel and watched Grease at the Piccadilly Theatre.
The following day, they headed to Pineapple Dance Studios to learn the routine for You're the One That I Want and then performed it with Grease stars in front of Arlene Phillips.
"It was the best weekend we've had as a family in a long time. It showed us there is more to life than just work," Mrs Huntley commented, adding that her husband has always fancied himself as a Danny.
Grease will close its curtains for the final time in London on April 30th 2011.
